"Price combines the sciences of contrarian investing, technical analysis, and option valuation in a straightforward, easy-to-understand manner. He has always been well known for his thorough and accurate research, and he shows why in Big Trends in Trading. Serious traders will benefit from reading this book."
–Lawrence G. McMillan, President of McMillan Analysis Corp.
"Price Headley takes a dynamic view of such popular indicators as sentiment and volatility because he knows that the markets are not static but are always changing, and he shows you how to change with them. In addition, he tests the majority of his work and shows the success rates. A rare combination, and a must read for new and experienced traders alike."
–Thom Hartle, President of Market Analytics, Inc.
"This book should prove to be valuable reading for all technically oriented traders and investors. By emphasizing the ‘big trends,’ Headley stresses the importance of concentrating only in the most profitable situations–and tells you how to find them. I personally like his choice of technical indicators–and his unique way of using them. I also like his coverage of money management and the mental aspect of trading–which are just as important as the trading system employed–but too often neglected. All in all, an outstanding piece of work."

The Visual Investor, and Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets,

User Reviews about Big Trends in Trading: Strategies to Master Major Market Moves (A Marketplace Book)
The book contents is OK but it is not a thorough analysis of the option strategies and techniques. -- Good book but
I haven't had any experience personally with the Bigtrends advisory services, but I can say that this book was worth my time to read. It's a bit heavy for me at first on all the systems used, but I found the final chapter on the psychology and money management alone to be well worth the cost of the book. That's where I always seem to lose my money in the market, by getting too high or too low (at the wrong times, of course!). It appears that his systems are designed to profit from these emotional fear and greed panics of the rest of the crowd.
Clearly this is not a book for beginners, but since I had already gotten my feet wet in trading over the last couple of years, I definitely have some ideas I look forward to applying from this book. The Acceleration Bands indicator (appears different than Bollinger bands) looks very promising to me, and I may also now try my hand at options (on a small scale at first)! -- Worth the cost - Psychology and Money Management are the keys to trading well
